Marines Fast Roping From CH-46 Sea Knight Helicopters

That would be a THRILL !!!!!

The gloves they wear when repealing down the rope look like welders gloves !

I was transported off an aircraft carrier in a CH 46 back in 1975 when I was in the US Navy ! My squadron had just completed carrier quals for the pilots. ! I was in VA-42, an A6 Intruder squadron from NAS Oceana, Va. Beach, Va.

Damn I miss these days

They should never have retired the phrogs…

…that bird is why I have tinnitus 24x7, and I still love them.
